It's worth noting that this short film was entirely created by a crew of about seven people. Four of us built the spaceship with whatever we could find at the hardware store. It took us six months. Our budget was nonexistent, and we paid for it with our day jobs. The CGI work was all done by one of our team members, who painstakingly crafted the visuals of the spaceship while learning how to animate. It was a prime example of a passion indie project, and we think the passion really shows through!

Hi ReflectionFilmsLLC guys. Sci Fi fan here, speaking only for myself. I thought the production quality was solid, had a 2001-esque feel to some of the spaceship scenes. However to me it had no "hook". No sense of danger or urgency. Like waiting for a story to emerge if I can get through this chapter. 23 minutes is a long time.

Hi, and thanks for your input! It was admittedly tricky trying to discover the pacing, the ebb and flow of what amounted to a "teaser" for the main story (that currently exists in novella form).

I've been watching quite a few of the short films on KZbin of late, and I find it somewhat grating that practically every one of them has people gushing in the comments about how amazing everything was, when that's rarely the case. For Zilly's War, however, I think it's warranted. I found the film genuinely intriguing, both in the character and her embrace of isolation, as well as her situation in orbit above this newly discovered planet. Had this been a standalone tale, I would have been impatient with the pacing, but as it appears to be an introduction to a greater story, I appreciate the time taken to establish the character a bit more. Oddly enough, a detail I found somewhat jarring was that she wore a bra on a ship where she is the only person present, and likely in gravity lower than earth standard. It's nothing catastrophic, of course, and I'm not suggesting revealing shots would have been more appropriate, but it took me out of the suspension of disbelief for a moment when I saw that. Now, I've never been aboard a ship, earthbound or otherwise, when some sort of emergency has occurred, so I can't really make a proper comparison, but the excessive flashing red lights in the corridor toward the end seemed like it would be more disorienting than helpful. Perhaps it was considered cinematic and was chosen for style, but it seemed a bit over the top. All in all, though, an intriguing film. Looking forward to the continuing story.

@@coreyc47 Yes, really. If you're watching a period piece and someone pulls out a sword that wasn't historically known to have been invented or in common use at that time, that would raise eyebrows, at least among those knowledgeable about such things. Likewise, an actor using an American southern accent while portraying an Englishman still living in England would seem to be somewhat out of place, no? I already stated that it was a minor detail, and that I simply happened to notice it. Are the creators required to make everything perfectly "correct" in order to avoid that kind of distraction? Of course not. They're more focused on the overall characterization and story, but I still imagine they want to create as genuine an environment as they can.

Wonderfully atmospheric, from the music to the costuming to the scene composition. Acting, too: as an asocial introvert myself, the actresses playing the main character were believable as the same person at different times in her life. More than a few echoes of '2001', but those could hardly be avoided and felt more like tributes than anything. Ultimately Zilly is shown as a flawed, eccentric but earnest person who finds courage even in her isolation. Whatever the internal or external threats, she accepts that she alone has to deal with them, because her own choices brought her to this point.

So, not (yet) a horror film like Life (2017) but certainly not going to plan. Eve did a wonderful job of portraying someone who probably never describes themselves as "happy" and all they want is peace. I can really relate to that, and she never appeared sad while in space but she didn't regret going to space for several years and didn't appear bored, despite being clearly a very smart person who might struggle without constant stimulation and challenges to occupy their mind. She was right where she wanted to be. I really enjoyed this short (chapter one ... of?)

From NASA's perspective this has meant emotional ties to friends and family. Those are missing here. The opportunity is to see why this fictional agency/company felt they had a good bet. This makes Zilly a very unusual character and a rich source of story.

Great job on graphics, scenery, plot and all else. If you can take some constructive criticism, I have just one. The main character came across as very aloof and didn't make me feel any sympathy for her. I have a hard time believing she was the best candidate for the job. Very nice acting ,if that was what you were going for. I would have expected a great deal of enthusiasm for the discoveries at a new planet, but she seemed very bored. She is very beautiful! My pet peeve for sci-fi is that no one has yet to come up with a creative way to explain gravity on spaceships. Not your fault.
@ReflectionFilmsLLC Жыл бұрын
Thank you for the thoughtful comment! The character's aloofness was in fact a written quality, meant to represent who she was. Her internal struggles, as someone torn between antisocial behavior and loneliness, is meant as the driving force between many of her actions (as will hopefully become clearer if we are able to make the rest of the series at some point. The novella tells the full story.)

The execution was perfect, really, but I do not believe any space agency, or company would send only one person to such a mission. Also they would never send someone with such troubled mind. There is a reason why most if not all astronauts have family back home. Also, she is super agitated to go to space all her life, and about science, and when she is finally there, looks completely bored, sipping coffee and wishing to be somewhere else... this is not very realistic, and these things for me just killing the whole movie. It would have been more belivable if we would have shown that she lies to the space agency, and everyone, presenting herself as a perfect candidate... I get the longing to getting away, but exactly such people are filtered out from such missions. You need people there who can not think anything else than coming back, meaning, do their jobs perfectly.

Your perspective is shared by some other viewers I've spoken with. The truth is, the film is very much intended as a melancholic character study set against the backdrop of alien mysteries.

I've been delving into sci-fi short films on KZbin lately, ever since stumbling upon the first one in my stream. As a fervent fan of sci-fi literature and cinema, I'm constantly amazed by the ingenuity and creativity showcased through modern CGI nowadays. However, I find myself grappling with a perplexing dilemma. Despite my enthusiasm for the genre, I often struggle to grasp the narratives presented in these short films. Perhaps it's a matter of personal intellectual capacity, or maybe I've become too accustomed to the straightforward storytelling of mainstream Hollywood productions. While I appreciate these films for their technical achievements, I frequently find myself at a loss when it comes to understanding the storyline and resolution. Am I the only one facing this challenge? 🤔
